Review of D@bbe: Demon Possession (2012) by Al M — 03 Jul 2013

Essentially another foreign remake of Paranormal Activity, the Turkish film Dabbe: Bir cin vakasi makes things interesting by substituting the Islamic myth of the Djinn for the Judea-Christian myth of the demon.

The film concerns a family suffering from paranormal occurrences who discover that their problems may be the result of an evil Djinn tied to mysterious deaths in another village. Well-made, creepy, and always surprising, this film shows how the found footage genre still has life in it when the filmmakers can think of new twists to add.
